The boat was a bit smaller than I anticipated from the picture and the price was a bit steep, but it is necessary to use if you want to get to Isle Royale. The ride to Windago was a couple of hours, but by the...More

The pictures on the website for this place show a small boat with indoor seating. There is no mention of outdoor seating anywhere. It also looked like the boat would hold about 15-20 people inside the boat. With this information, my husband and I prepared...More

Thank you for your input. Our website shows the boats that we operate, no others. The so called "pretentious" attitude is nothing more than trying to persuade those we notice who are not dressed accordingly to put on another layer based on the weather conditions...More

There are very few options for getting out to Isle Royale. This one is a bit pricey, but if you want to go out to the island and explore for a few hours (or do a back country trip), you need to swallow the sticker...More

Took the Voyageur II to Isle Royale for a 5 day backpacking trip. The 2 men who serve as the crew loaded everyones packs on to the top of the boat covered and secured them. Mike was so helpful to people who were getting sea...More

As I read the other reviews I have to laugh. People you will be traveling across a small part of one of the largest fresh water bodies of water in the world. You will get wet, you will be on a small boat with waves,...More

Our trip out to IRNP was more than rough. There were 8-10 foot waves. The crew was great and I felt completely safe. The only complaint I have is as a backpacker you end up paying double what the day visitors do. That being said...More

Thank you for your comments, I think. I would like to address and respond to some of the points you posted. We wish more than anyone that every day was sunny and flat calm on the water, however, the reality is we are in the...More

We took the Voyageur II out to the island and there was plenty of room to sit inside. However, the Seahunter is very cramped and there is not enough room for all passengers to sit inside. It was a very cold, rainy day and we...More

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry that you had a less than pleasant ride home. We try to inform everyone of the differences in temps between the lake and the mainland, in fact it is one of our...More
